Sorry for the lack of posting but the holidays and such took up a lot of time and I got away from writing things. I have been moving into Romans again and will likely pick up the thoughts there. The topics have been really basic Christianity things but still vital. Even more so because it seems that I forget the basics way too easily. Such as what makes us clean is Christ's Blood. Not what we do or don't do. Again, as a person who gets so caught up in how he feels that's really tough to put into perspective. The fact that we can come to the father is based solely upon the blood of Christ--not how gross we feel after a sin. Not on the sin itself. Or just the opposite the goodness we suddenly feel for behaving for one whole day. Or for simply obeying one thing our Father tells us. The ability to come to GOD rests totally on the worthiness of the Blood. And it doesn't feel like anything because it wasn't a feeling thing. Christ's blood is worthy and awesome before I was a christian, while I was sinning, praying, eating, being sick, winning football games, playing video games, laughing or crying. None of those circumstances or feelings impacts HIS worthiness at all. So none of them impacts my standing with GOD in those terms either. Just the beginning of some thoughts. |
